Dont Kill The Whale


--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don't Kill the Whale – Yes --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard A strange and beautiful recording. There is one thing I'm not quite sure of: The F# in the verses seems to be a major chord - Anderson, at least, sings a major third. Something in the instrumental track, on the other hand, somehow suggests a minor third without really coming forward with it. With the absence of the lead vocals in both instrumental verses the F# seems to be more minor than major. Any ideas? Comments highly welcome!
